Duan Lingtian's expression darkened.
Initially, when he found out the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect did not arrange a marriage for Murong Bing, he sighed in relief even though he found Zhou Shu Qiu boring.
However, he did not expect this.
Although the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect did not arrange a marriage for Murong Bing, Murong Bing was still in danger because of her stubborn master.
'A person who killed a direct disciple whom she had groomed since young … It's not difficult for her to kill another direct disciple who's on the same level as her!'
Due to this reason, Duan Ling Tian could not help but worry about Murong Bing's safety.
"How long do you think the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect can delay the appointment of the successor?"
Duan Lingtian asked as he looked at Zhou Shu Qiu.
"Eight to ten years at most."
Zhou Shu Qiu sighed and said, "It's a tradition of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect to appoint a successor when the time is right. Even if the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect wants to delay the appointment, the other high-ranking officials in the sect won't agree to it."
"Are you sure the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect will help her?"
Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes.
"Of course!"
Zhou Shu Qiu said confidently, "Before she told me, she only told the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect about you. For this reason, the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect is delaying the appointment of the successor.
Although she's not the disciple of the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect, the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect treats her like her own daughter. Bing 'er told me she treats the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect as her mother. "
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"If that's the case, can't the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect stop her master from harming her?"
Duan Lingtian asked in a deep voice.
In Duan Lingtian's opinion, the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect had a high status in the sect. How could she not stop the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect from killing Murong Bing?
"She can't stop it."
Zhou Shu Qiu shook her head and said, "Put aside Bing 'er's master whose cultivation base is not inferior to the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect, there's also a Ten Directions Celestial Duke in the sect.
"The Ten Directions Celestial Duke is Bing 'er's master's father!"
"So, you should be able to imagine the stakes involved …"
Zhou Shuqiu said with a grim expression on her face.
Ten Directions Celestial Duke!
When Zhou Shuqiu mentioned the Ten Directions Celestial Duke, Duan Lingtian's heart skipped a beat.
Ten Directions Celestial Dukes were peak Celestial Dukes. They were only a step away from becoming Celestial Kings.
Previously, when he was chatting with the young man with the surname Pei, he had heard that the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect had at least one Ten Directions Celestial Duke. The sect was much stronger than the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland.
"How many Ten Directions Celestial Dukes are there in the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"That one."
Zhou Shuqiu added.
"One?"
Duan Lingtian's expression changed slightly.
He did not expect this.
Not only was Murong Bing's master powerful, but her father was also a Ten Directions Celestial Duke in the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect!
There was only one Ten Directions Celestial Duke in the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect.
The Ten Directions Celestial Duke was also the strongest person in the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect.
As the daughter of the strongest person in the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect, even if Murong Bing's master was not the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect, the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect would not dare to offend her.
Instantly, a strong feeling of danger enveloped Duan Ling Tian's heart, and it didn't disperse for a long time.
"Duan Lingtian."
Zhou Shuqiu looked at Duan Lingtian and said solemnly, "Although I don't know how you managed to make the three prominent Celestial Alchemists of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect acknowledge you as the Chief Celestial Alchemist …
However, I think it's because you have your own methods. For this reason, I hope you can take Bing 'er away from the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect before her master finds out that she has lost her virginity. "
Zhou Shuqiu's eyes were filled with anticipation as she looked at Duan Lingtian.
"I'll do it even if you don't tell me that."
Duan Lingtian said.
"I'm relieved to hear that."
Zhou Shuqiu sighed in relief.
"There's one more thing …"
After a while, Zhou Shuqiu seemed to have recalled something. She looked at Duan Lingtian and said, "Duan Lingtian, I managed to convince my junior aunt to look for you because I told her I'd like to try my best to convince you to join the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect.
If my junior aunt mentions this when we return, please cooperate with her. "
Zhou Shuqiu said.
"Since you promised your junior aunt, why don't you try to convince me to join the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect?"
Duan Ling Tian asked as he looked at Zhou Shu Qiu meaningfully when he heard her words.
"Even if I did, would you agree to join the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect?"
Zhou Shuqiu asked.
Duan Lingtian fell silent when he heard Zhou Shuqiu's question.
Indeed.
Even if Zhou Shuqiu tried to persuade him to join the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect, he would not agree since there were many things he had to consider.
After waiting outside the main hall for a while, Duan Lingtian and Zhou Shuqiu returned to the main hall.
As soon as Duan Lingtian entered the main hall, he saw Liu Liu Liu looking at Zhou Shuqiu.
Liu Yan Jun, the Supreme Elder of the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect, looked at Zhou Shu Qiu with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
Zhou Shuqiu shook her head when she saw Liu Yan Jun looking at her.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian noticed the anticipation in Liu Yan Jun's eyes was replaced by disappointment. It was as though she was disappointed by something.
"Sect Leader Bai, Enforcer Tie, Alchemist Duan … I apologize for my sudden visit."
After Zhou Shuqiu returned to Liu Yan Jun's side, Liu Yan Jun bade farewell to Duan Lingtian and the others. Then, she led Zhou Shuqiu out of the main hall.
As for Tie Taihe, he followed after them and saw them off.
"Sect leader, aren't you curious why Zhou Shuqiu came looking for me?"
Duan Lingtian asked after he had chatted with Bai Ping for a while.
"She must be trying to persuade you to join the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect, right?"
Bai Ping asked with a smile.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded. "That's the main reason."
"However …" Bai Ping paused for a moment.
Bai Ping suddenly thought of something and asked, "Master Duan, Zhou Shu Qiu mentioned Murong Bing earlier … If I'm not mistaken, she's the genius disciple from the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect, right?"
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian was not surprised that Bai Ping knew about the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect and Murong Bing.
After all, Bai Ping was the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
Although the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect was not as powerful as the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, a sect like the Tai Yi Celestial Sect would definitely know something about the sect.
Bai Ping was about to ask Duan Lingtian about his relationship with Murong Bing when Zhou Shuqiu mentioned Murong Bing.
"Sect leader!"
Outside the hall, a voice rang out. It was Tie Tai He who had returned.
"Hm?"
Bai Ping and Duan Lingtian were taken aback by Tie Tai He's return.
A few moments later, they walked out of the main hall and learned that the people from the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect had returned as soon as the two people from the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect left. The person in the lead was none other than the leader of the group from the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect.
He was the former Sect Leader of the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect and the only Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke in the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect.
The Soaring Cloud Mountain was also known as the Golden Buddha!
"Guardian Tie, come with me to greet Senior Yun Shan."
When Bai Ping, the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, learned of Soaring Cloud Mountain's arrival, he did not dare to be negligent. He immediately greeted Tie Tai He and brought him along to welcome Soaring Cloud Mountain.
"Master Duan, do you want to come with us?"
Bai Ping did not forget about Duan Lingtian who was standing next to him.
"Let's go and have a look."
Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed as he nodded. "I'd like to meet the Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke from the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect as well …"
Each of the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland had an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke.
However, the Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke from the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect was the only Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke from the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect.
For this reason, the arrival of the Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke from the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect had caused a huge commotion in Tai Yi City. Many people were shocked by his arrival.
A few moments later, Duan Lingtian, Bai Ping, and Tie Tai He left the prominent Celestial Island to greet Soaring Cloud Mountain, the Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
"Bai Ping, the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, greets Senior Yun Shan."
"Tie Tai He, the Left Guardian Of Dharma of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, greets Senior Yun Shan."
When they saw Soaring Cloud Mountain, both Bai Ping and Tie Tai He immediately bowed respectfully to Soaring Cloud Mountain. From the beginning until the end, they did not dare to be negligent.
Although they were Seven Stars Celestial Dukes, they were still Seven Stars Celestial Dukes.
However, Soaring Cloud Mountain was an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke who was above them.
Let's put this aside for now.
Based on Soaring Cloud Mountain's seniority, Soaring Cloud Mountain was worthy of their respect.
While Bai Ping and Tie Tai He bowed and greeted Soaring Cloud Mountain, Duan Lingtian was sizing up Soaring Cloud Mountain. He was a tall and burly bald monk dressed in a golden kasaya.
However, unlike the benevolent appearance of ordinary monks, this monk had a ferocious face and an extremely ferocious expression. Ordinary people might not even dare to look directly at him.
"Duan Lingtian greets Senior Teng."
Just as Duan Lingtian was about to greet Soaring Cloud Mountain, Soaring Cloud Mountain shifted his gaze to Tie Tai He and asked coldly, "You're Tie Tai He?"
Before Tie Tai He could react, Soaring Cloud Mountain heard Duan Lingtian greeting him. His eyes instantly shifted to Duan Lingtian.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian felt as though he was being watched by a poisonous snake.
At the same time, Duan Lingtian discovered Soaring Cloud Mountain was filled with killing intent.
Teng Yunshan's ferocious eyes were filled with extreme killing intent as he stared at him …
